Men's Intermediate
This class represents bodybuilders who have competed before but have not won a higher title. This was another great class. Zulzahir Cayli emerged as the winner but also showed that he has tremendous potential in the sport. Zulzahir has a great physique, tiny joints, and full muscle bellies, if he can stay focussed, he will be a future champion.
